The Scheu Analog Tacco Mk II is the company's top-of-the-range tonearm model, featuring a unique conical wooden tonearm wand crafted from premium woods such as thuja cedar or amboina pine. It employs an advanced unipivot bearing design with a ruby sphere tip on a hard metal rod and a leuko-sapphire recess in the bearing block for extremely low friction and precise contact. The bearing and counterweight unit is constructed from tungsten for high mass concentration and resonance suppression. Available in 9-inch and 12-inch versions, it delivers clear, well-contoured sound with pure bass, fine treble reproduction, and natural voice rendering. It pairs excellently with Scheu turntables like the Premier.
